Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment

We’re joined in this concert by three exceptional soloists who will each direct a piece from their instrument.

The evening starts with Haydn’s London Symphony – his musical response to the bustling 18th century city. Isabelle Faust then directs and is soloist for Mozart’s Violin Concerto, by turns bright, dance-like, tragic and playful. The concert culminates with all three soloists combining for Beethoven’s Triple concerto for violin, cello and keyboard.
